I am completely against capital punishment, and I am so glad that we don't have it in the UK anymore. I think it's barbaric and backwards.
It's like the biblical analogy of "an eye for an eye". We're murdering you because you murdered someone else! What sort of message is that?!
Plus there's the fact innocent people get given the death sentence and killed. It's awful.
Murderers should get life imprisonment that actually means life, but I'll never agree with capital punishment.
